DFVF: database of fungal virulence factors [PDF]
Database, 2012 Fungal pathogens cause various diseases for plant and animal hosts. Despite the extensive impact of fungi on human health and life, the threats posed by emerging fungal pathogens are poorly understood. Specifically, there exist few fungal virulence gene databases, which prevent effective bioinformatics studies on fungal pathogens.

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2021 Lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (Khib ) is a newly identified post-translational modification (PTM) that plays important roles in transcription and cell proliferation in eukaryotes. However, its function remains unknown in phytopathogenic fungi. Here, we

Functions of fungal melanin beyond virulence [PDF]
Fungal Biology Reviews, 2017 Melanins are ancient biological pigments found in all kingdoms of life. In fungi, their role in microbial pathogenesis is well established; however, these complex biomolecules also confer upon fungal microorganisms the faculty to tolerate extreme environments such as the Earth's poles, the International Space Station and places contaminated by toxic ...

Candidalysin: From Mechanism of Action to Biomarker Development and Therapeutic Response [PDF]
Innovations in Digital Health, Diagnostics, and Biomarkers, 2021 The incidence of systemic fungal infection is increasing, and millions of people around the world suffer from fungal infections. Candida albicans is one of the most frequently isolated fungal pathogens in clinical settings. As a polymorphic organism, the

Virulence, 2020 Entomopathogenic fungi naturally infect insect hosts in environment. Fungal invasion and host immune defense are still in the progress of co-evolution. In this study, entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana and lepidopteran insect Galleria mellonella ...
